GREENSBORO, N.C. – The No. 20-ranked University of Miami golf team carded a 24-over-par 600, through two rounds Thursday at the 31st Annual ACC Women’s Golf Championship in Greensboro, N.C.

“I just don’t get it. We practiced well all week, but played terrible today,” Miami head coach Patti Rizzo said. “We have nothing to lose on Saturday; we just have to go for it and finish strong.”
